Rolex Sydney Hobart Yacht Race 2025 | Adrienne Cahalan

Adrienne Cahalan is not only one of the world’s most celebrated ocean racing navigators (she is a member of The Australian Sailing Hall of Fame and received an OAM in 2019), but she is also one of the most versatile. For many years she was the navigator aboard Wild Oats XI and in recent years she has played that pivotal role on yachts as diverse as the R/P66 Alive, to the Fastnet winning JPK11.80 Sunrise and this year aboard Andries Verder’s much-raced Marten 72 Aragon. She will be joined by Dutch ocean racer Carolijn Brouwer (Olympian and three-time Volvo Ocean Race crew member) who has sailed previously with Andries Verder.
